Competition Car Aerodynamics by Simon Mcbeath

Competition Car Aerodynamics by Simon Mcbeath

Aerodynamics is a science in itself, and is one of the most important factors in modern competition car design. This new book, a successor to "Competition Car Downforce", covers all aspects of aerodynamics, including both downforce and drag. This complex subject is explained in down-to-earth terms, with the aid of numerous illustrations demonstrating how aerodynamic devices work. Aimed primarily at amateur and semi-professional designers and drivers, as well as students, this fascinating book will also appeal to armchair enthusiasts wishing to gain a better understanding of the subject.

Simon McBeath is a life-long motorsport enthusiast and has been a competitor for over 30 years. Press officer for Gurston Down Speed Hillclimb, where he is also a Hillclimb School instructor, Simon also regularly contributes as a freelance writer to Racecar Engineering and other magazines.

Aerodynamics articles have always been a speciality of Racecar Engineering, with its monthly column, 'Aerobytes, ' launched in 2003, carrying out wind tunnel and CFD studies on a wide range of competition cars.

Simon also provides an aerodynamics advisory service, SM AeRo Techniques.
